Sehnsucht [11 Tracks] by Rammstein

Pros: Dark, loud, fun
Cons: German lyrics, some major sexual references

Germans kick…errr…no…that’s not quite right. Germans are damn fine folks. Heck, I’m married to one whose ancestry is German. But their music? Well, sometimes it can leave something to be desired. Germans tend to be rather serious—much too much so ...

Pros: an excellent mix of electro and heavy guitars. better than Herzeleid.
Cons: maybe too repetitive

After promising first album (Herzeleid), Rammstein laid the foundations of their style, they are back in 1997 with Sehnsucht. And again, it's a vamp. The group managed to keep German forces from the first album while improving their weak points. ...

Pros: Fast, furious heavy-metal
Cons: Gets a bit repetitive later in the album

Ahh, Rammstein. What to say about these guys? Misintepritation abounds around this German heavy-metal sextuplet, due to their witty word-play and risque lyrics, sung completely in their native German. The band consists of Christoph Doom Schneider on Dr ...

Pros: Excellent heavy metal/techno mix, meaningful lyrics, overall great sound.
Cons: Nothing (see below)

Rammstein, a heavy metal/techno band from Germany, hit the US shores in full force with their single, "Du Hast" (You Have). But since everyone already knows that, let's start with how I first heard of them.

I only heard about Rammstein more...

Pros: Heavy; Various Musical Styles; 'Get-up-and-go' music.
Cons: The horrible cartoon noises on Kuss Mich; Varied CD versions.

Background: Rammstein is a music group from Germany. They produce excellent rock/metal that' ...

Pros: Lyrically excellent, musically solid. First half of the album is consistently brilliant
Cons: The second half is comparatively mediocre musically

A huge commercial success; platinum in America, number one in much of Europe, and an album with their best known song “Du Hast” (You Have - NOT “You Hate” - more on that later). Commercial is the right word for it, because this is quite a commercial...

Pros: Rocking, Heavy beat, good guitar and bass work
Cons: A lot of the songs are in German

Rammstein is an import from Germany giving America a taste of heavy metal that we've not seen before.

The album, "Sehnsucht" carries such tunes as "Du Hast" which made the air waves rock and...

Pros: Excellent combination of crunching guitars and electro elements. Very melodic and fun music
Cons: Their other album, Herzeleid, is better

Rammstein is an excellent band and Sehnsucht is a great album. The music is most like heavy metal but there is an industrial influence and it’s very melodic music. It’s all in German, but who cares? The music is great and the only thing bad about the...

Pros: Can listen to it over and over without getting bored; drowns out annoying construction ruckus
Cons: If you understand German, can distract you while you're reading or writing :oP

I purchased this album last year after having listened to (and enjoyed) some of the songs on mp3. I like heavy industrial music, so I figured that at the very least I'd wind up with some decent background tunes for cleaning the room.

I wound...

Pros: Great sound, meaningful lyrics, useful for German students
Cons: Some lyrics are...incestuous.

(Please bear with my rough translations of the song titles and some content. I can't speak German, but will soon be able to.)

A few years ago, A friend told me about a song called "Du Hast". I had NO idea what "Du Hast"...

Pros: Great Music - Great Band
Cons: Most of it, if not all of it, is in German

Rammstein, a German band formed back in 1994, have lasted 7 years so far and are still going strong. In fact, this year they released they're 3rd full album (Mutter).

They first came out with 'Du Riechst So Gut' back in 1995 and later that...

Pros: awesome music, beats, vocals
Cons: its in German, so if you don't have the translated lyrics(like I do) you won't know what he's talking about. Unless of course, you speak German.

On the day when I first found this CD or rather it found me it was an average day. I stepped into my local Camelot Music and was looking through the CDs when over the store's speaker system rang the sounds of one of the many great songs from this...

Pros: ADRENILINE RUSHING MUSIC
Cons: In German

I first heard Ramms+ein on MTV. The song that they were playing was DU HAST. (Means "You Hate") I was blown away. The music was just so... what are the words? ADRENILINE RUSHING!!! A week went by and I finally found a copy of their CD...

Pros: Awesome industrial beats and an amazing guitarist, cool-sounding German lyrics, and it can be played again and again
Cons: Some very disturbing lyrics and themes; some of the songs are slightly repeditive; the cover sheet translations are inaccurate

Rammstein has achieved a form of notoriety in Germany ever since the release of their first album, Herzeleid. The songs in the album were brutal and often disgusting, dealing with such bleak topics as airshow disasters, necrophilia, and rape. They...

Pros: Real hard and heavy stuff
Cons: You probably won't understand a word

For those of you who enjoy music for music's sake, not caring about the lyrics, then you might enjoy this album. For those that like to at least understand what the words are to the songs they hear, forget it.

Someone please explain to me how...
